mansions, various type of houses and many churches. When we visit the Plaza Mayor

buried. Then we will move on to
the San Francisco church Monastery which was built in 1620 that has the
Catacombs where many people living early in Lima were buried, which we will also
visit.
Additionally we will see an ancient ruin within Lima known as Huaca Hullamarca
(archeologists believe this city was built approximate in the 9th century) which
is considered a Pre-Inka ceremonial center who's shape appears as a truncated
pyramid (due to ceremonial items found in the ruins and female mummies who may
have been priestesses). Our visit also

cities surrounded by parks, coffee shops, and restaurants. We then go
